Scripture: 1st Corinthians 12:27
Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.
Thought for the Day: The following was included in Sunday’s bulletin, but there was a request for a reprint.
It is Jarod’s Story (one of our new church members at Cypress Creek Christian Church)
“I crawled out from the mangled wreckage reaching for the light and feeling more alive than I’d ever felt in my life.”
I’d survived three homeless shelters and a multitude of family issues. But my sights were set on High School graduation and my girl, the only bright spot in my life. Little did I know that her sights weren’t set on me. The break up ravaged my heart and reminded me my life was a shambles. I left her, that final time, broken. On my way home that late April night, a car came from out of nowhere causing me to swerve and roll my truck.
I crawled out from the mangled overturned wreckage reaching for the light and feeling more alive than I’d ever felt in my life. The rescue workers lighting the way couldn’t believe I walked away unscathed and neither could I. A gratefulness that I’d never experienced in my life begged for me to go to church. The next day, at Sunday service, I opened my heart to God’s love. Now, I anchor my life on His word:
Do not fear for I am with you. Do not be dismayed for I am your God!

Prayer: A simple thank you, Lord! Thank you! Amen.
